Study of polymorphism in MDR1 gene exons 21 and 26 revealed that T2677T and T3435T alleles are not a factor predisposing to lymphoproliferative diseases, but they determine the efficiency chemotherapy. Individuals with T2677T and T3435T haplotypes are at highest risk of drug resistance. Association between genotypes G2677T and C3435T was detected in normal subjects and in patients with lymphoproliferative diseases.

Background: Angioedema (AE) due to acquired C1-inhibitor deficiency (AAE-C1-INH) is a rare disease associating recurrent edema of mucosa and skin. Several underlying diseases have been reported, mainly lymphoproliferative diseases and monoclonal gammopathy. However, 15 to 20% of patients never exhibit such a hematological condition.

Article Synopsis
  • This study investigated how adenosine deaminase (ADA) levels in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) relate to different neurological disorders.
  • Five specific diseases showed significantly higher CSF ADA levels compared to a noninflammatory control group, with tuberculous meningitis (TBM) showing the highest increase.
  • Strong positive correlations were found between CSF ADA levels and several other laboratory parameters, suggesting that elevated ADA levels might indicate T-cell hyperactivation in the central nervous system.

: RAS guanyl-releasing protein 1 (RASGRP1) deficiency is characterized by immune dysregulation and Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-related lymphoproliferation. Diffuse mesangial sclerosis is one of the infrequent causes of infantile nephrotic syndrome. : Here, we described a 7-year-old girl who was diagnosed with diffuse mesangial sclerosis at 5 months old and subsequently developed chronic bilateral neck swelling at the age of 3 years.

Introduction: Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection represents a significant global health burden, particularly due to its extrahepatic immune-mediated manifestations, such as mixed cryoglobulinemia, associated vasculitis (CryoVas), and non-Hodgkin B-cell lymphoma (B-NHL), which pose significant challenges. The advent of direct-acting antiviral (DAA) has changed the therapeutic landscape for HCV-related complications.

Areas Covered: This review explores the evolving epidemiology and management of HCV extrahepatic manifestation and lymphoproliferative disorders in the era of DAAs.

Rosai-Dorfman disease (RDD) is a self-limited, idiopathic, non-neoplastic disorder characterized by the proliferation of phagocytic histiocytes, which can mimic malignant lymphoproliferative disease. Cases of RDD most commonly present as bilateral painless cervical lymphadenopathy, with lesser involvement of the axilla, inguinal, and mediastinal lymph nodes. We present the case of a 62-year-old woman with a history of endometrial serous carcinoma who underwent evaluation at a dedicated breast imaging department after positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) revealed breast masses and axillary nodes with increased uptake of fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG).
